The price you're quoted will vary, depending on the nature of the shoot. However, the example below is consistent with the cost of a local photo flight.

The amount we charge depends on the location and nature of the job. Local photo flights (Nassau County & Western-Central Suffolk County) will range from $450-$600. The "local area" is outlined to give customers a baseline for pricing.

We offer multi-site discounts, which is a great way to save time and money. When you have multiple locations photographed in one flight, we charge less for each additional location. This applies to ALL photo flights (See the example below):

The example shows the cost of photographing multiple locations on one flight vs. the cost of having each location photographed on separate flights.

Multi-site shoot   <-------vs------->   Separate shoots
         
Home #1 $475       Home #1 $475
Home #2 $120       Home #2 $475
Home #3 $99       Home #3 $475
         
Total $694*       Total $1,425

(Savings $731*)

Image sizes' Proportion (height to width), Cropping (Trimming), Zooming-in (enlarging and viewing/printing only a portion of the original photograph) and image Resolution.

We hope you'll get a better understanding after reading the following and after examining the examples below (of some Hampton's beachfront properties). Customers of our custom photography (vs. stock) should not be concerned; we'll crop your image per your request and help you through the whole process.

The photographic 'film' ('negative') of last century was replaced by a digital sensor. This sensor, rectangular in shape, is made of millions of light sensitive critters called Pixels. The larger the sensor and the number of pixels, the better [and larger print output] can be produced by that digital camera. (similar to the effect of a larger and more sensitive film of yesteryears).

Prints sizes and height to width ratios.
Prints' papers come in many sizes and a few different 'ratios'. Below are the common ratios and sizes. The proportion (height to width) of most sensors in digital cameras is 2:3, 'very' rectangular; so, if you don't want your print to include your left and/or right neighbors, just choose a more square ratio (from the third line below, or even a complete square). Prints' sizes are in inches.

  • 2:3 ratio: 4x6, 8x12, 11x17, 12x18, 20x30, 24x36.
  • 3:4 ratio: 5x7 (a bit less square), 9x12, 16x24, 30x40.
  • 4:5 ratio: 8x10, 8.5x11, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30.
